Abstract

This study is for checking the possibility of ginseng complex as cosmetic materials. For this we carried out biological active evaluation about anti-inflammatory and whitening effects by using ethanol extract of ginseng complex. Samples were prepared by extracting 70% ethanol from each of Panax ginseng C. A. Meyer (A), Phellinus linteus (B) and Pinus rigida Mill. (C), and mixing them at a ratio of (A) 1 : (B) 1 : (C) 0.5. In order to evaluate the anti-inflammatory effects of the samples in macrophages (RAW 264.7 cells), MTT assay was used to evaluate the toxicity of the samples and the inhibitory activity of nitric oxide production and the expression levels of inflammation-related proteins and genes. To evaluate the whitening effect of the samples in melanoma (B16F10 cell), MTT assay was used to evaluate the toxicity of the sample, cellular tyrosinase inhibition, and melanin contents. The inhibitory activity of nitric oxide in the LPS-induced RAW 264.7 cells was 71.2% at $25{\mu}g/mL$ concentration and western blot analysis showed that the expression of iNOS and COX-2 protein decreased in a concentration-dependent manner. Inhibition of tyrosinase activity showed 36.8% inhibition at $50{\mu}g/mL$ concentration of ginseng complex and inhibition of melanin contents showed 47.8% inhibition at $50{\mu}g/mL$ concentration. From the results of the experiment, it was confirmed that the ginseng complex had excellent anti-inflammatory and whitening effect and could be used as a safe natural cosmetic material in the future.

본 연구는 화장품 소재로서 인삼복합물의 가능성을 확인하기 위한 것이다. 이를 위해 우리는 인삼복합물 에탄올 추출물을 사용하여 항염증, 미백 효과에 대한 생물학적 활성 평가를 수행하였다. 시료는 인삼(A), 상황(B), 리기다소나무(C)를 각 70% 에탄올로 추출한 후 (A)1 : (B)1 : (C)0.5의 비율로 혼합한 시료를 사용하였다. 대식세포(RAW 264.7 cells)내에서 시료의 항염증 효과를 평가하기 위해 MTT assay를 이용한 샘플의 독성평가와 nitric oxide 생성 저해 활성 및 염증관련 단백질 및 유전자의 발현량을 확인하였다. 시료의 미백 효과를 평가하기 위해서 멜라노마(B16F10 cell)를 이용해 MTT assay를 통한 샘플의 독성평가, cellular tyrosinase 저해율 측정 및 멜라닌 생합성량을 측정하였다. LPS로 유도된 RAW 264.7 세포내에서 시료의 nitric oxide 저해 활성 결과는 $25{\mu}g/mL$ 농도에서 71.2%의 우수한 효능을 나타내었으며 western blot 실험결과 iNOS, COX-2 단백질의 발현은 농도 의존적으로 감소하는 것을 확인하였다. Tyrosinase 활성 억제 실험에서 인삼복합물의 농도 $50{\mu}g/mL$에서 36.8%의 감소를 나타냈으며 멜라닌 생합성 억제 평가 결과에서 농도 $50{\mu}g/mL$에서 47.8%의 감소를 나타냈다. 상기 실험 결과로부터 인삼복합물의 우수한 항염증, 미백 효능을 확인하였으며 향후 안전한 천연 화장품 원료로 사용될 수 있음을 확인하였다.
